Why BoardEvaluator

Three things every other platform misses.

Most board evaluation tools are survey builders with a governance label. BoardEvaluator was built by governance practitioners, for governance practitioners, and it shows.

Beyond compliance

Evaluations as a strategic asset, not a tick-box. 87% of clients report improved board effectiveness within one cycle. Compliance is the floor; strategic insight is the point.

Human plus technology

Software for scale, advisors for depth. Confidential qualitative interviews by senior governance practitioners are included with every Standard and Premium engagement.

King V-aligned and AI-ready

Native mapping to all 13 King V principles, and the only platform with a dedicated AI Governance Status Assessment aligned to the new Code's AI oversight obligations.

How scoring works

Every response rolls up to a picture the board recognises.

Quantitative ratings and confidential interviews resolve into a single effectiveness profile, scored across the dimensions that matter to your charter, then mapped to King V for disclosure.

From hundreds of data points to one clear read.

Directors rate the board confidentially across every dimension. BoardEvaluator weights, benchmarks and resolves those responses into an at-a-glance profile, so the strengths, the developing areas and the items that need attention are visible at a single glance.

  • Effective dimensions confirm what the board already does well.
  • Developing dimensions show where focus will move the needle next.
  • Attention dimensions flag the risks a board cannot afford to miss.
